From 4bfe24ac1d9d9f06b30b2909f53ea462c72cfe1d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:24:12 -0800 Subject: x86, doc: Add a formal bootloader ID for kexec-tools Add bootloader id D for kexec-tools (it is kexec-tools, not the kexec system call, that builds the data structures, therefore it is kexec-tools which is the "bootloader" for this purpose.)
